Instructions

Tips for making Smores:
    Cup of Yum
  1. Pick out the perfect marshmallows for making s'mores. Jet-Puffed has come out with the perfect flat marshmallow that fills the entire graham cracker. If you can find them, these are absolutely genius for making homemade s'mores! If you can't find them, use the large marshmallows.
  2. Toast the marshmallow perfectly. There's a science to toasting the marshmallow without charring it. First, put a marshmallow on a long roasting stick. Some people love a black, charred marshmallow but I personally prefer a puffy, golden-colored marshmallow. The key is to get it close to the heat source without touching it. You want to get the marshmallow close enough that it becomes soft and ooey, gooey without setting it on fire. Once it is perfectly soft, place it in between two graham crackers
  3. Pick your favorite Chocolate for S'mores. You want to use a thick chocolate bar so it doesn't get lost in between the graham cracker and marshmallow. The classic way to go is to use Hershey Bars but you can use anything from chocolate peanut butter cups to different varieties of Ghirardelli Squares
  4. Eat it fast while everything is ooey gooey and melty.  

Notes

  • I suggest the flat marshmallows specifically made for S'mores. If you can't find them, buy the classic large marshmallows
